Canadian-born American Impressionist Painter, 1858-1924 American painter, printmaker, illustrator and designer of Canadian birth. He moved with his family to Boston in 1868 and was working as a commercial artist by 1886, lettering showcards, but his early attempts at watercolour foretold little of the talent that emerged after he travelled to Paris in January 1891. He studied for three years at the Atelier Colarossi under Gustave Courtois (1853-1923), and later at the Acad?mie Julian under Benjamin Constant, Joseph Blanc and Jean-Paul Laurens.  Related Paintings of Maurice Prendergast :. | Easter Procession St. Mark's | Viewing the Ships | Franklin Park Boston | Ponte della Paglia in Venice (mk09 | Venetian Canal Scene |

Surikov was also an accomplished portrait painter and incorporated a large number of portrait studies into his history paintings.
